Spinal Decompression

Spinal decompression therapy provides significant relief by gently stretching your spine using a traction table or similar motorized device. This stretch creates negative pressure in your spinal discs–the cushions between each of your vertebrae–which, in turn, takes pressure off of your discs, allows herniated and bulging discs to retract, and reduces sciatic nerve pressure. Additionally, the mild pulling and releasing motions of decompression therapy promote the diffusion of oxygen, water, and nutrient-rich fluids, which enables healing of damaged nerves.

Understanding Sciatica Pain

Characterized by pain felt along the sciatic nerve’s path–from your lower back, through your hips and buttocks, and down your legs–sciatica affects an estimated 40% of Americans at some point in their lifetime, according to the Cleveland Clinic.

Your body’s longest and thickest nerve, the sciatic nerve comprises five nerve roots that ultimately come together to form a left and right sciatic nerve–with each sciatic nerve running from your lower back region, through your hips, buttocks, and leg until it reaches just below your knee and branches off into other nerves that continue to your feet and toes.

When the sciatic nerve is compressed, pinched, irritated, or inflamed, you experience sciatica pain. Ranging from mild to severe, sciatica pain is often described as stabbing, burning, or shooting and can be felt anywhere along the path of your sciatic nerve.
